Even before I had an interview with Julie and Shanga, I was so sure that I wanted to focus in art when I go Berlin this summer. Reason why art is my first choice is as an art major, I think it would be very interesting to go out to a place where I've never been and meet new people, and research. I think art is for everybody, it doesn't matter whether or not they can draw or paint. I want to know people's appreciation of art pieces that are displayed in public spaces. When Sabine Lang mentioned about art spaces in subway stations. Generally arts in Berlin. I will come up with more specific ideas.
I also thought Migration and Immigration was interesting topic to research, espcially in religious aspect. Increase number of Muslims and Mosques that are built recently. I want to know where they come from, and it is intersting how different people have different beliefs. Last but not least, I find the internal security interesing. How Sabine mentioned about parking lots for women, i thought it was very cool. But why? Why not for disabled people? Why is it a big issue in Berlin? Women's rights?
My thoughts should be more organized as the quarter goes.
I'm very excited :-)
